OMG! I can't even post on the game thread as it is overloaded. I turned off the TV because I thought it was obvious and hate to see Indy celebrate. I saw this post and went to CNN and got blown away. How sweet is this guys?

Outsider here. I know I shouldn't be crashing the "Adam humiliated" celebration, but curiosity has the best of me:

Why do you guys hate this guy?

From my perspective, he's as much a part of the Pats lore as anyone. Guys DO go to other teams now & again...is it because he went to the hated Colts?

It's because he felt spited by the Patriots. The Patriots offer was not that much lower than the Colts offer, only $150k lower per. He didn't go back to the Patriots with a counteroffer because he felt spited by them. In other words, he told the Patriots, FU. That's why. Then he denigrated his former teammates.

I know that you guys saw this. While Dungy was arguing, and they showed Adam, he did not look the way he looked when he kicked for us. It just flashed through my mind and I didn't want to like "jinx" it .

Anyway, he looked kinda sick. And, it looked as if he really wished that Dungy would shut up and let him get it over with.

That whole sequence was very strange. What the heck was Manning trying to do lineing up on forth?

They got waaayyyy tooo cute if you ask me. All they had to do was kick the frick'n thing and that was it.

Don't forget that the endorsements he would have made here in NE blew away the $150k. Honestly, he would have had a few million more just from advertising in the Boston market. Papa Geno's, Car dealers, Dunkin Donuts, etc all loved Adam.
